FOCUS: Light Painting

Light painting was something that I and others in the class had wanted to play with for a while.One day before we began class, we decided to go out in the Courtyard to pay around with it.

We mostly used the light on our phones but our teacher also had a rod that had four lights on it. How light painting works is you set your camera to a long exposure, 8-15 seconds typically depending on what you want to draw, then you draw something with a light and the picture comes out in the photo. It works best in an already dark place. We did some with our phones, but the four light ones ended up pretty interesting.
